- Abstract
- en_US Included in this tome are two items bearing on fables. First, there is what drew my eye to these books in the first place: an engraving painted by W. Mulready and engraved by J.N. Gimbrede of WL. It has a bullying boy about to beat up another lad against a fence, while a mother and child look on. It is worthy of presenting, at the least to show how common The Wolf and Lamb was in 1895. The volume also has a paragraph about Aesop by Thomas Wright on 404. See Volume III for some fables by Lokman. The new owner of Blake Books was at first not sure that he wanted to let me have just two volumes out of the already broken set.
